Trials and Tribulations of the Nobel Trio
However, the Nobel Peace Prize winner of this year had a belated arrival – the coveted medal and diploma were received by the winner’s daughter. The ‘Golden Dynamite’ encompassed the gold from the medal, while dynamite traces the destructive invention by Alfred Nobel that was the genesis of the Nobel Prizes.
The Great Escape
Meanwhile, the great escape of Maria Corina Machado to Oslo, from her hideout in suburban Caracas, is the kind of heroic tale that will enthuse any lover of freedom and democracy. To reach Europe, she had to use all the modes of transport known to mankind – terra firma, water, and air!
America’s Role
However, in the process, he seems to be taking it too far now, claiming that Venezuela has stolen oil wells from the US and should be returned. This is akin to the earlier US demand for the return of control of the Panama Canal.
Nobel Peace Prize Winners
Consequently, the week gone by was a mixed bag for Nobel Peace Prize winners. While Ms. Machado could sniff freedom, in Iran, the 2023 laureate Narges Mohammadi had to face re-arrest and was reportedly beaten up too.
Grey Bull Rescue
Moreover, the US government also appears to have extended assistance in the great rescue by halting the bombing campaign in the choppy seas from the Venezuelan coast to Curacao, from where a private aircraft carried Ms. Machado to Norway.
Ales Bialiatski’s Release
However, in the case of the Belarusian winner of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2022, Ales Bialiatski, he had a positive turn of tide when he was released from prison along with many other opposition activists by the dictatorial regime of Alexander Lukashenkov.
Grey Bull Rescue to the Rescue
However, in the case of Mohammadi and her ilk, they may perhaps have to wait for Grey Bull Rescue to turn its contemplative gaze all the way onto Iran!
